China News Service, August 6th. According to the website of the Office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Hong Kong, the US government issued the so-called Hong Kong-related memorandum, slandering and discrediting Hong Kong’s national security law, nakedly interfering in Hong Kong affairs and China’s internal affairs, and flagrantly trampling on the basic norms of international law and international relations. The spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Hong Kong expressed firm opposition and strong condemnation.
The spokesperson pointed out that the formulation of the Hong Kong National Security Law and the reform of the electoral system have restored stability in Hong Kong, improved the rule of law in Hong Kong, ensured the legitimate rights and interests of Hong Kong residents and all people living in Hong Kong, and promoted Hong Kong to usher in chaos and governance. The situation opens a new chapter of good governance and good governance.
Facts have proved that the National Security Act has targeted a small group of anti-China and Hong Kong rioters who seriously endanger national security. In the past year, the law enforcement agencies of the Special Administrative Region have successively arrested 117 anti-China and Hong Kong gangsters suspected of violating the Hong Kong National Security Law, and prosecuted 64 people. The number of crimes in Hong Kong has dropped significantly, the economy and finance continue to be strong, Hong Kong society’s confidence in "one country, two systems" has doubled, and the general public in Hong Kong are satisfied with the current situation.
The international community continues to be optimistic about Hong Kong's prospects.
The spokesperson pointed out that the United States disregarded the basic facts and mainstream public opinion in Hong Kong, weaving lies and slandering Hong Kong’s national security laws, blatantly beautifying anti-China chaos in Hong Kong, and providing so-called "safe havens" in a brazen manner. Prosperity and stability, this little trick fully exposed its sinister intention to play the "Hong Kong card" to contain China's development.
The despicable behavior of the US is not "caring" about Hong Kong at all, but violently intervening in Hong Kong affairs; it is not "standing with Hong Kong people" at all, but "standing with a small group of anti-China chaos in Hong Kong"; it is not supporting Hong Kong people at all. The “rights and freedoms” of China are “freedoms” that allow a small group of anti-China chaos in Hong Kong to mess up the Hong Kong SAR and endanger China’s national security.
"The actions of the U.S. are only a cover to deceive the world, reflecting the hypocrisy and ugliness of U.S. politicians. This kind of shameless political manipulation is bound to be resolutely countered by more than 1.4 billion Chinese people, including Hong Kong compatriots, and doomed to failure!"
The spokesman emphasized that Hong Kong is China's Hong Kong, and Hong Kong affairs are purely China's internal affairs.
The Chinese government is unwavering in its determination to oppose external forces' interference in Hong Kong affairs and China's internal affairs, its determination to safeguard national sovereignty, security and development interests, and its determination to implement the "one country, two systems" policy.
"No country, no one can stop Hong Kong from regaining its brilliance. There is absolutely no way out of the anti-China chaos in Hong Kong. It is impossible for the worm to shake the tree! We urge the United States to rein in the precipice immediately and die as soon as possible!" the spokesperson said .
